Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>Answer:
The multiplication factor of increase should be inverse of the multiplication factor of decrease.
e.g. Say you have a number 100.
You increase it by 25%. The multiplication factor is 5/4 i.e. when you multiply 100 by 5/4, you get 100*5/4 = 125. This is 25% more than 100.
Now you want to decrease it by a certain % such that you get 100 back.
Basically, 100*5/4 * x = 100
So x = 4/5 (inverse of 5/4)
Hence, you decrease by 20% (the multiplication factor of 20% is 4/5)
or
Use this formula: cumulative % change = a + b + ab/100
You want the cumulative change to be 0.
a + b + ab/100 = 0
If you know that you are increasing by 25% and want to find the % by which you should decrease to get the same number,
25 + b + 25b/100 = 0
5b/4 = -25
b = -20
So you need to decrease (hence you get the -ve sign) by 20%.</span>
Answer: 1, 4, -7
Step-by-step explanation:
Coefficients are numbers that are in front of a variable. Let's first determine the terms that have variables in them.
z, 4z², -7a
Since these all have variables in the terms, we know the coefficients are 1, 4, -7.
Answer:
it's true! it's easier to solve for y because there's no coefficient in front of it unlike the second one that has "9y."
Yes you need to! And you need to be careful not to forgot that when doing your calculations!!
